Defeating Diabetes offers real hope and real solutions to those with type-2 diabetes. Recent health studies have confirmed that a low-fat, vegan (meat- and dairy-free) diet works best to not only manage but reverse the symptoms of type-2 diabetes.

The authors guide you through the practical steps you need to take to construct a diet and lifestyle that really works. Their no-nonsense approach presents everything you need to know to make wiser dietary and lifestyle choices.

You'll find out how to: take control of your blood sugar levels, find out which carbohydrates are actually good for you, achieve and maintain a healthy body weight, arm yourself with protective dietary fats, use nutritional supplements for blood sugar control, and improve exercise, sex, sleep, and self-care.

Included are more than 50 easy and delicious recipes using whole foods along with suggestions on how to convert traditional favorites laden with fat and cholesterol into high-fiber, healthful dishes.

These user-friendly and evidence-based recommendations will help anyone with diabetes become more healthy.
